Art by Oklahoma Abstract Contemporary Equine Artist Jonelle T. McCoy

© "My H'art Leapt"

I found these small heart shaped canvases at my favorite art supply store, and I immediately knew I would enjoy painting little equines on them. They are made of very stiff pressed cardboard that is about 1/8th inch thick and have canvas on both sides. They are within a 5 1/2" square measurement in size flat. I create these with my line style in acrylics. I call them my Horse H'art Series, and I try to incorporate the word h'art in the titles, sometimes as it is spelled as part of a word, sometimes used phonetically. In the coming weeks as we get closer to Christmas I will be starting to have giveaways for my fans and collectors, and there will be some H'arts in the mix.

Colorado Mountain Landscape Painting "October Afternoon At The Redlands" by Colorado Artist Nancee Jean Busse

This view of the Colorado National Monument is from old Hwy 340 from Grand Junction to Fruita, Colorado. Three years ago, this painting was juried into an art show in Fort Collins, Colorado. It was a well-respected show; one that requires participating artists to pay a “handler” to ensure that their paintings were delivered from the shipping facility to show, back again, and then shipped back to the artists. When my painting never came home to me, I inquired and found that it had been lost. No tracking number existed and no one was willing to take responsibility. I was mad, sad, and all that other stuff, but let it go and moved on. Two years later, on Christmas Eve day, the painting showed up at my front door, in it’s original shipping box! So, it’s home now, hanging in my studio, wishing for a new home…

© "Once Again"

I have been sharing with you the progression of the WIP painting "Once Again", and I finally have the finished painting to share with you. Unlike my flat lines paintings, the lines in this one are dimensional, and there is added acrylic based texture mediums added for further depth. Depending on how this painting is lit, will give it a slight difference in how it looks. It's slight, but interesting. I had so enjoyed doing this technique on another painting that I've definitely decided that this approach will be a part of my creations. "Once Again" has been painted with acrylics on a 16"x20"x1.5" gallery wrap canvas. It is available. Contact me for more info.

Original Colorado Landscape Painting With Horse, Rider Sheep and Dog , "High Country" by Painter of the American West Nancee Jean Busse

I love painting the Meeker Sheepdog Trials. At the far end of the competition field the sheep wranglers release the sheep at the beginning of each run. That’s what this painting depicts. I love the colors of northern Colorado in autumn; brilliant sun on yellow fields, blue mountains, clear skies… Colorado at it’s most rare and beautiful!

 © "Beginnings"

I have been working on painting with the approach of my line technique somewhat opposite of my usual, instead of flat lines, this new way of creating uses texture and raised lines to bring to life my imaginative horses. Doing something new can be an enriching experience, or it can be daunting. I find the new path interesting, and inspiring. There is a spiritual energy that guides my efforts, and this painting evolved to show that relationship between myself and the canvas, and between the subjects in the painting and the viewer. Since trying this new way is somewhat in it's infancy, it's a new beginning, and the painting subject is also a new beginning, therefore I named it "Beginnings" for the mare with the new generation at her side. Her foal looks to her for guidance, support, love and acceptance, and she in kind radiates that loving energy all around and behind and above them both. The rays of white light shine down on the pair. "Beginnings" is acrylic texture and paint on a 24"x20"x1.5" gallery wrap canvas. It is available for purchase. Contact me for more info.

WIP of © "Once Again"

Time to revisit my continuation of the WIP painting. This is day four of the acrylic painting Once Again. I moved from working on the front horse to the background, where I added a horses head and form suggesting a leaping horse in the upper right. I'm particularly pleased with the lower horses turquoise eye.

Equine, Horse Fine Art Photography "Cool Waters" by Colorado Photographer Connie Dines, National Western Stock Show Artist

Like crossing the street to go to work, these horses splash across the creek, headed to the corrals where they get fed, selected for riding and saddled up. Throughout this series the white horse seems to have been the lead horse and where she went the others followed.


 This is the third and final image in the Working Horse series that is hanging in the Club at the National Western Stock Show this year. Part of the proceeds of the sale of each piece goes to the National Western Scholarship Fund.

© "BeCome a Survivor"

Last year I was commissioned by a fine lady who enjoys the paso fino breed like I do, to create an equine painting that depicted the will to fight and the hope for a cure for her breast cancer diagnosis. I painted this 8"x8"x1.5" gallery wrap acrylic with the horse looking forward and upwards, for belief that she would be ok, that she would beat this illness. I chose blues for a calming of frazzled nerves and pink for the passion that a hopeful fight brings. The horse is adorned with the signature pink ribbons that is symbolic of the breast cancer awareness in it's mane and hair that also sweeps up in the same direction as the horses steady and strong upward gaze, and there are some ribbons that can't be seen painted in the sides. I'm happy to report she is doing great- and I can only hope that this can be true for all women who face this devastating health crisis. I feel very blessed that my recent mammogram was clean and clear, I pray someday that this is the case for all women! Please feel free to share my blog to bring awareness to others. Thank you!
PS I hope you noticed in the title of the painting my use of the capital letters B&C in become to signify Breast Cancer Survivor.
